The story itself is excellent, but the way the book layers in a historiographical element really adds to the mystery of the core plot and the unreliable narration. While I don't know if all the plot points are the most relevant, I couldn't put this book down and I can't shake the book and how brilliant it is.
Graphic: Violence, War, Abandonment, and Schizophrenia/Psychosis

Everything is irrelevant.
Everything is important.
Everything is important, until it is irrelevant.
Breathe in. Breathe out. Until you cannot.
Memory is malleable. History is mutable. All I can do is try to make sure my story isn’t lost. I have saved what I can, so you will understand what we have become.
